Jack Pettigrew
Short description
John Douglas "Jack" Pettigrew (2 October 1943Who's Who in Australia 2013, Crown Content, 2012. - 7 May 2019) was an Australian neuroscientist. He was Emeritus Professor of Physiology and Director of the Vision, Touch and Hearing Research Centre at the University of Queensland in Australia.
Jack Pettigrew
Research
Research Pettigrew's research interest was in comparative neuroscience. He studied a variety of different birds and mammals with modern neuronal tracing techniques to unravel principles of brain organization. He was the chief proponent of the flying primate hypothesis, which was based on the similarity between the brains of megabats and primates. Special emphasis was placed on the visual, auditory and somatosensory systems. Pettigrew was the first person to clarify the neurobiological basis of stereopsis when he described neurones sensitive to binocular disparity. Later, he discovered that owls have independently evolved a system of binocular neurones like those found in mammals. Pettigrew showed evidence for a role for non-visual pathways in the phenomenon of developmental neuroplasticity during the postnatal critical period. Pettigrew used binocular rivalry as an assay for interhemispheric switching, whose rhythm is altered in bipolar disorder.
Jack Pettigrew
Honours and awards
Honours and awards Pettigrew’s scientific work was recognized by several honours and awards, including becoming a Fellow of the Royal Society of London (FRS)in 1987, becoming a Fellow of the fellow of the Australian Academy of Science (FAAS) in the same year, and being awarded the Centenary Medal in 2001 for service to Australian society and science in phylogeny.

Hong Yun-Sook
Short description
Hong Yun-Sook (; 1925 – 12 October 2015)"Hong Yunsuk" LTI Korea Datasheet available at LTI Korea Library or online at: http://klti.or.kr/ke_04_03_011.do# was considered one of the leading Korean female poets of her generation. She is also known by her pen name YeoSa (Beautiful Story).
Hong Yun-Sook
Biography
Biography Hong was born in 1925 in Chongju, Heianhoku-dō (North Pyongan Province), Korea, Empire of Japan. She lived in Seoul most of her life. Upon graduating from DongDuk Girls’ School and Seoul Women's Teachers College (경성 여자 사범학교, 1944), she worked as a teacher for a few years before beginning her studies at the Seoul National University College of Education. She was an active member of the Theater Club at the college, acted as the first secretary, and played many roles on stage as well as writing plays. She was unable to finish her education, however, due to the outbreak of the Korean War.Source-attribution|"Hong Yunsuk" LTI Korea Datasheet available at LTI Korea Library or online at: http://klti.or.kr/ke_04_03_011.do# Hong Yunsuk later served as president of Korean Women Writers' Association (Hangug-yeoryu-munhag-inhoe) and Korean Poets Society (Hangugsi-inhyeobhoe). Her literary and political foundations were established during this period of post WWII and pre-Korean War. Throughout her life, she worked as a teacher, reporter, and a lecturer at Sangmyung Women's College.
Hong Yun-Sook
Work
Work Hong Yun-Sook first published a poem “Fall” in Literary Times (Mun Ye ShinBo) in 1947. In the same time frame, her play was selected in the prestigious “New Spring Literary Debut” by ChoSun IlBo. Much of her earlier work from this period was lost during the Korean War. Her first poetry book, “YeoSa ShiJip,” was published in 1962. Since then she has published 17 volumes of original poetry as well as numerous collections of essays, plays, and poetic plays. She has received many awards and is a member of National Academy of Arts. Her continued literary endeavors were most recently recognized in 2012 when she received the 4th Ku Sang Literary Award. Her contemporary poets include Ku Sang, Ko Un, and Kim Nam-Jo . According to the specialist on Korean poetry, Brother Anthony, "Her vision of life is deeply affected by the suffering brought by the Korean War and the lasting division of Korea. Her poetic universe is often dark and inclined to pessimism. Perhaps the fact that she is unable to visit her native region in the North helps to explain the many images of life as an unending journey found in her work. The themes of individual solitude and of the emptiness of modern life are expressed in many poems. When she tackles more public themes, the longing for the reunification of Korea dominates her concerns."

Yatterman
Short description
is a Japanese anime television series broadcast from January 1, 1977 to January 27, 1979, comprising 108 episodes. It is the second and longest show in the Time Bokan series by Tatsunoko Productions. The series succeeded Time Bokan and preceded Zenderman. It was also the final series to be produced by company founder Tatsuo Yoshida prior to his death. A remake of Yatterman aired on NTV and Yomiuri TV from January 14, 2008 through September 27, 2009, with the original voice actors for the Doronbo gang. A live-action adaptation was released theatrically in March 2009. Another entry in the franchise, Yatterman Night, began airing in January 2015 to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the Time Bokan franchise.
Yatterman
Plot
Plot Fragments of a mysterious stone known as the are scattered across the globe. Once all four pieces are assembled, the location to the world's largest deposit of gold will be revealed. The villainous gang are searching for the Skull Stone. Standing in their way are Gan and Ai, who become the masked heroes Yatterman-1 and Yatterman-2, respectively. The two are aided in their adventures by a large mechanical dog, Yatterwan. Unlike previous series in the Time Bokan franchise, Yatterman does not cover any specific time/space travel. Instead, the places where the heroes travel to and the individuals they encounter are either a homage or parody. The fictional characters or places are usually represented by purposely misspelled names or familiar actions. For example, a revolution leader is named "Yashington", in homage to George Washington; and a place resembling ancient Japan is named "Yametai" ("(I) want to stop"), as a spoof of Yamatai.

Yatterman
Heroes
Heroes Actor portrayal: Sho Sakurai Gan is a 13-year-old boy whose father is a famous toy designer who failed to complete the "Yatter-Wan", a dog-shaped all-terrain rescue robot. Gan is an expert mechanic, and he helps perfect his father's dream design. He forms a fighting team with his girlfriend, Ai, and names himself Yatterman-1. His weapon of choice is a kendama, which he uses as a flail and grappling hook, as well as for his special zapping attack "Kenda-Magic". He is shown to be much more careless in the 2008 version of the show and tends to frustrate Ai. Actor portrayal: Saki Fukuda Ai is Gan's girlfriend, and the only daughter of a shopkeeper who sells electrical appliances. She is Gan's loyal follower, and is often seen constructing and modifying machines with him. She is Yatterman-2, and uses a telescoping baton called "Electric Stick" to shock opponents with electric currents. In the 2008 version of the show, she often refers to things as "100%" (for example, "We are in 100% of trouble"). Omotchama is Gan's robot, and serves as the mascot of his father's toy shop. He is shaped like a large dice, and is known for his catchphrase "-da-koron" at the end of each sentence. His name comes from "omoccha", the Japanese word for "toy".
Yatterman
Villains
Villains Actor portrayal: Kyoko Fukada Doronjo (real name ) is an attractive blonde who leads the Dorombo Gang in locating the Dokuro Stone. She is known for her vanity, intelligence, and leadership, just like her counterpart Marjo from Time Bokan. Doronjo also has an iconic skull-shaped smoking pipe similar to Marjo's. Actor portrayal: Katsuhisa Namase Boyacky is a tall, skinny man with a large nose and moustache, just like his counterpart Grocky in Time Bokan. He is clever, lecherous, and largely responsible for the creation of the giant mechas used by the Dorombo Gang. He usually appears naked, according to his comic Bogeboge Boyacky (ボゲボゲボヤッキー). Actor portrayal: Kendo Kobayashi Tonzura is a short, muscular, squat man with a severe overbite and facial stubble, just like his counterpart Walsa in Time Bokan. Tonzura is the strong man of the group and does most of the heavy lifting, though he's usually quick to run away when threatened. He speaks with a kansai-ben accent. Dokurobei is the elusive boss of the Dorombo Gang. He gives orders regarding the location of the Dokuro Stone to his subordinates in unusual ways, such as through a talking hamburger or the image of a red skull on a TV screen. Even when his leads are revealed to be inaccurate, Dokurobei is always quick to punish the Dorombo Gang for their failures.
Yatterman
Mechas
Mechas A dog-shaped mecha robot, Yatterwan was designed by Gan's father as a prototype rescue robot. He is fitted with a siren and a bell, similar to other rescue vehicles, plus a joystick to control his other features. Yatterwan can fire iron pellets from his nostrils and carries two fire hoses on his back. A bone-shaped power pack, known as "Mecha-Tonic", is fed to him to allow a sudden outburst of strength in warding off deadly blows. Yatterwan's special attack is a large group of miniature robots, which exit from his mouth, and usually take the shape of land-based animals. The mini-robots use their weapons on their enemies, causing Doronbo's robots to explode and create a skull-shaped cloud. Yatter-King was built using the damaged remains of Yatterwan. It is a much larger machine, and resembles a crossover of a fire engine with a dachshund. It comes complete with a series of new features, including a tail that serves as a firehose, a projectile launcher on its rear, and a body which acts as a mecha-carrier for a series of smaller robots. In the 2008 version, it was formed by combining Yatterwan and Yatter-zero, which has a design with a more fighting ability and a "king"-like appearance. Yatter-Pelican is a pelican robot who appeared in the 14th episode. He is constructed by Gan as an airborne mecha for the Yatterman duo. Yatter-Pelican has a braggard, loud-mouthed personality. He feeds on a fish-shaped Mecha-Tonic for a power boost, and the mini-robots he releases are shaped like various birds. In the 2008 version, he tends to speak in bits of English in certain sentences. Yatter-Angler is a goosefish robot who appeared in the 27th episode. He is constructed as the only all-terrain mecha for the Yatterman duo, and is equipped with a cockpit for underwater travel. The Mecha-Tonic is in the shape of a fish roe, and releases mini-robots shaped like marine creatures. He has a funny, constantly-gurgling voice, as if one was talking underwater. Yatter-Phant is an elephant mecha, introduced in the 92nd episode as an alternate mecha-carrier alongside Yatter-King. Its most noticeable features are its ears, which flap in order to allow flight, and its trunk, which serves as a water-hose/flamethrower. Introduced in the 58th episode, Yatter-Bull is a bulldog robot, and serves as one of the three "Action Mechas" that are carried by Yatter-King. Yatter-Dozilla is a dinosaur-shaped robot built by Gan, and has the ability to drill underground. Yatter-Yokozuna is a sumo robot. Introduced in episode 36 of the 2008 series, Yatter-Jinbee (Yatter-Whashark) is a whale shark mecha and mecha-carrier, much like the original Yatter-King and Yatter-Phant. Yatter-Mogura (Yatter-Mole) is a new Talpidae-based mecha in the 2008 version, first appearing in episode 39. Like Yatter-Dozilla, he specializes in underground work. Yatter-Dragon is an Asian dragon-based mecha, introduced in episode 50 of the 2008 version. It only seems to appear in a major crisis, often when the other robots aren't available or functional.
Yatterman
Villains' machines
Villains' machines The shape and function of their mechas is fully dependent on the theme of the scam they are running at the beginning of each episode. Their machines usually feature a familiar interior, with Boyacky and Tonzura sitting at the sides, and Doronjo sitting in the middle, bossing them. The villains' machines are often seen packing a lot of weaponry and usually temporarily defeat Yatterman mechas at the beginning of each fight. Later in the show, the villains start to deploy their own armies of miniature robots to counter those of Yatterman.

Totesee
Infobox body of water
__NOTOC__ Totesee (Germanized: Totensee) is a small natural lake () at the Grimsel Pass in Switzerland. The lake lies immediately to the south of the natural watershed and cantonal boundary at the pass. It is therefore in the canton of Valais, and it would naturally drain into the river Rhône in the valley below. However a dam has been constructed to enable its use as a reservoir, increasing its size and raising its level by . As part of this work, an aqueduct supplies water to the Grimselsee, which drains into the river Aare and thus forms part of the Rhine catchment. In November 2006, the lake's entire trout population died, possibly due to algae. The name Totensee (also: Lake Toten, literally "Lake of the Dead") is said to be derived from soldiers of Duke Berchtold V of Zähringen driven into the lake by the people of Valais after the Battle of Ulrichen in 1211.

The RPára is part of the Rapid Reaction Brigade that includes other elite units like the army commandos and Army Special Operations. Like other Portuguese airborne units, the troops of the school are nicknamed "Boinas Verdes" (Green Berets) while recruits are nicknamed "Catatuas".

The Airborne Battalion
The Airborne Battalion After the successful use of airborne forces in the Second World War by Germany and the Allies, other armed forces began to examine the possibility of forming parachute troops for special missions. In 1955, Portuguese Defense Ministry cabinet approved a request for funds for airborne paratroop training. Two Army captains went to France to take the French parachute course at the École de Troupes Aeroportèes. After the Portuguese Air Force was created as an independent branch of the military, it was decided that the paratroopers would be part of the Air Force, much like the German organizational structure during the Second World War, but organized on NATO lines. The BCP - Batalhão de Caçadores Páraquedistas (Paratrooper Hunters Battalion) was formed in 1956. The paratroopers were issued unique berets and camo uniforms similar to those of the French troops. Airborne forces initially jumped using the venerable German tri-motored Junkers Ju 52 aircraft. The unit was first deployed to Tancos, which still serves as headquarters for today's Portuguese airborne forces.

Colonial wars and the regiment
Colonial wars and the regiment In 1961, conflict erupted in the African colonies, which soon evolved into a series of guerrilla campaigns against Portuguese rule. Troops were required to fight in Africa, and the BCP became the RCP - the Regimento de Caçadores Pára-quedistas (Paratrooper Hunter, or Ranger Regiment). By this time, the men were armed with the modern 7.62 mm ArmaLite AR-10 infantry rifle, a weapon previously not seen in Western military forces.Afonso, Aniceto and Gomes, Carlos de Matos, Guerra Colonial (2000), pp. 183-184 The paratroopers liked the accuracy and mobility of the AR-10, but supplies were embargoed after initial deliveries were completed in 1960, and paratroopers were later issued the collapsible-stock variant of the m/961 (G3) rifle. As time went on, more airborne units were created in Angola, Mozambique, and other areas outside Portugal to fight the various separatist guerrilla movements. Due to Portuguese Air Force control over airborne units, the paratroops' battalion numbers reflected their subordination to local Air Force commands. The following battalions of the regiment were assigned to the following Air Force regions: 1st Air Region (Air Force command over North Atlantic territories and mainland Portugal)- 11th (Portugal) and 12th (Guinéa-Bissau) Paratrooper Hunter Battalions 2nd Air Region (Air Force command over South Atlantic territories) - 21st Paratrooper Hunter Battalion (Angola) 3rd Air Region (Air Force command over the Indian Ocean territories) - the 31st and 32nd Paratrooper Hunter Battalions (Mozambique)

Paratrooper casualties
Paratrooper casualties 12th Paratrooper Hunter Battalion: 56 dead (3 officers, 6 sergeants and 47 soldiers) 21st Paratrooper Hunter Battalion: 47 dead (5 officers, 9 sergeants and 33 soldiers) 31st Paratrooper Hunter Battalion: 39 dead (2 officers, 6 sergeants and 31 soldiers) 32nd Paratrooper Hunter Battalion: 18 dead (2 sergeants and 16 soldiers) A total of 160 Portuguese paratroopers were KIA. On April 25, 1974, a military coup led by members of the Portuguese Armed Forces ended the authoritarian government regime in Portugal, and the country moved towards fully democratic elections. Shortly afterwards, peace negotiations with the various African colonies resulted in an end to the African wars, followed by the independence of Angola, Mozambique, and Guinea-Bissau. Military reforms were instituted in Portugal in 1975, resulting in a reorganization of airborne forces. In November 2007, a paratrooper was killed in a vehicle accident in Afghanistan.

Parachute Troops Base School
Parachute Troops Base School On July 5, 1975, the BETP (Base Escola de Tropas Pára-Quedistas or Parachute Troops Base School) was established on the basis of the RCP, which was disbanded and integrated into the CTP (Corpo de Tropas Paraquedistas, Parachute Troops Corps or PTC) of the Portuguese Air Force. The CTP is responsible for changing the paratroopers from a counter-guerrilla force to a conventional airborne force capable of fighting in a possible NATO vs Warsaw Pact war, so a Light Paratrooper Brigade (BRIPARAS) was formed with three Paratrooper Battalions and a few support units. The Corps also raised several barracks across Portugal to garrison the new brigade, BOTP1 – Base Operacional de Tropas Pára-quedistas nº1 (1st Paratrooper Operational Base) at Monsanto and BOTP2 at São Jacinto; some troops were also garrisoned in the BETP at Tancos. The BRIPARA structure included: Brigade HQ BOTP1: 11th Paratrooper Battalion, Anti-Tank Company, Signals Company BOTP2: 21st Paratrooper Battalion, Services and Support Operational Group, Heavy Mortar Company BETP: 31st Paratrooper Battalion, Aerospace and Ground Operational Group

Army integration
Army integration In 1993, further changes in the organization of airborne forces took place when the Defense Minister decided that the entire corps should leave the Portuguese Air Force and become part of the Portuguese Army. This meant also that the Commandos Regiment would be disbanded and the commandos that had taken the parachute course would be part of the new unit which was named BAI - Brigada Aerotransportada Independente (Independent Airborne Brigade). The BETP then changed its name again to ETAT - Escola de Tropas Aerotransportadas (Airborne Troops School), the Paratrooper Corp changed to the Comando de Tropas Aerotransportas (Airborne Troops Command) and all three Paratrooper Battalions changed to Airborne Infantry Battalions (BIAT). This new Army Airborne Brigade was bigger and more powerful due to the previous Air Force Light Paratrooper Brigade; they had replaced heavy mortars with 105 mm artillery guns and were equipped with light armor vehicles. In territorial terms the BOTP1 was closed and BOTP2 changed its name to the São Jacinto Military Area. The units of the brigade that were not at Tancos (Airborne Support Battalion) or São Jacinto (2nd BIAT) were now garrisoned at Army barracks (Regiments) like the 15th Infantry Regiment at Tomar (1st BIAT), 3rd Infantry Regiment at Beja (3rd BIAT), 4th Artillery Regiment at Leiria (Grupo de Artilharia Aerotransportada – Airborne Artillery Group), 3rd Cavalry Regiment at Estremoz (Esquadrão de Reconhecimento Aerotransportado – Airborne Recon Squadron) and others. The BAI structure was: 15th Infantry Regiment: 1st BIAT, Services and Support Battalion São Jacinto Military Area: 2nd BIAT, Anti-Tank Company 3rd Infantry Regiment: 3rd BIAT 4th Artillery Regiment: Field Artillery Group ETAT: Aeroterrestrial Support Battalion Tancos Airfield: Signals Company Engineering Practical School: Engineering Company 3rd Cavalry Regiment: Recon Squadron 1st Anti-Aircraft Artillery Regiment: Anti-Aircraft Artillery Battery

Elite Forces Brigade
Elite Forces Brigade The next reorganization of the Army though, changed the ETAT designation again to ETP – Escola de Tropas Páraquedistas (School of Parachute Troops) with the BAI being renamed and reorganized as BRR – Brigada de Reacção Rápida . The Airborne Troops Command was disbanded. Currently, airborne forces are under direct control of regular army commands, such as Land Forces Operational Command (operational units) or the Instruction Command (ETP – Paratrooper School). The last reorganization of the Army changed ETP's name to the present Regimento de Paraquedistas (Paratroopers' Regiment), RPára. The Elite Forces brigade is no longer a full deployable brigade, but rather an organizational structure that controls all the special trained army units. The 3rd Airborne Infantry Battalion and Anti-Tank Company were disbanded and the other two BIAT were renamed Paratrooper Infantry Battalions (BIParas), the São Jacinto Military Area was renamed 10th Infantry Regiment, the Airborne Artillery Group and the Services and Support Battalion were transferred to the Intervention Brigade and their no longer Airborne capable and the Engineering Company and the Anti-Aircraft Artillery Battery were reduced to platoon size. This new Rapid Reaction Brigade joined all remaining Paratrooper units together with Army Special Operations and the reborn battalion-size Army Comandos unit. Finally a newly formed unit has joined BRR: UALE (Army Light Aviation Unit), which is waiting to be equipped with NH-90 TTH and a still-to-be-chosen light utility helicopter, possibly the Eurocopter EC-135 or the AgustaWestland AW109. BRR forces include: 15th Infantry Regiment: 1st BIPara 10th Infantry Regiment: 2nd BIPara RPára: Aeroterrestrial Battalion Commandos Troop Center: Commando Battalion Special Operations Troop Center: Special Operations Forces Army Light Aviation Unit: Army Helicopter Group, Signals Company 3rd Cavalry Regiment: Recon Squadron Engineering Practical School: Engineering Platoon 1st Anti-Aircraft Artillery Regiment: Air Defence Platoon
